Chapter 451: Inheritance
"I see. ”
Zhen Di has gained insight this time.
"Master, can I open it now?"
Mengyu was excited like a child.
"Let's go!"
Qin Jiang didn't look away, he didn't want to see the cat's unobtrusive behavior.
"Xiaolu, come here and help!"
Meng Yu didn't bother to care what Qin Jiang thought, just waved at Zilu, ready to do a big job.
"Oh!"
Zilu asked Qin Jue to Zhen Di, and then went to Mengyu's side.
"Wait!"
Zilu walked to the "Yin Yang Coffin" and was about to open it, but Mengyu stopped her.
"What's wrong?
Zilu was a little puzzled.
"Up there... Shouldn't there be a small formation? How do you feel that the cover on this is loose? It seems that as long as you exert force, you can push it open. ”
Meng Yu also got closer and found that there was no spiritual power left on this "Yin Yang Coffin".
"It can't be that the contents have been taken a long time ago, right?"
Zilu came up with a guess that might have disappointed Mengyu.
"Impossible! The wind direction of this island, especially the wind direction of this location, is not fixed, how can it have already been taken?"
Mengyu firmly felt that it was impossible.
"Is there some hidden weapon in it, deliberately luring the person who finds it to open it?"
Zilu made another possible guess.
"Possibly, let's be careful!"
Mengyu gave Zilu a vigilant look.
When the two of them held their breath and opened the cover, there was no hidden weapon that they had expected.
At this time, all the people, except for Qin Jue, who was standing far away, looked at this coffin with a curious eye.
However, the coffin was empty.
This made Meng Yu a little disappointed.
I thought there was a good baby!
As a result, the empty rejoice!
Zilu is not necessarily happy, nor is she not necessarily unhappy, but it is relatively peaceful.
Zilu stared at the coffin and touched it with her hand.
But with such a touch, Zilu got a hidden clue.
Zilu pressed against the edge of the coffin, groping with her dexterous and delicate fingers, and after a while of groping, she touched something cool. Zilu, who was puzzled by this, hurriedly looked down, but she didn't expect that there was a piece of cold iron on the edge of the coffin. I poked my finger and was still able to move. Zilu, who felt strange, immediately used a knife to remove the cold iron stuck in the edge of the coffin.
Zilu took off the cold iron and looked at it carefully.
The cold iron was only an inch and a half long, a thin piece. It's only slightly cool to the touch, it shouldn't be an old cold iron. One side of the cold iron is very smooth, but the other side is engraved with words.
But unfortunately, Zilu didn't understand.
"Brother~"
Zilu's eyes were still on the words.
"What did you call me for?"
I didn't find the baby, and Meng Yu was feeling unhappy!
"I took a movable piece of iron from the edge of the coffin. There's a word on it, but I don't recognize it. ”
Zilu was still frowning and looking at the cold iron piece in her hand.
"I don't even know the words, so can you still eat?"
Mengyu's temper is quite bad, and the taste of the mouth is quite strong.
At this time, Qin Jiang wanted to persuade Mengyu.
My little kitten is really getting bigger and bigger!
Let's be a little bit concerned about the image!
So much like a shrew!
"Brother, don't make fun of me! The age of this kind of writing is estimated to be older than you and me, how can I know each other!"
Zilu made a bitter face, stared at Meng Yu, and said depressedly.
"Oh, show me!"
Zilu's words made Mengyu's temper a little less and a little more interested.
"喏~"
Zilu gave the cold iron piece in her hand to Meng Yu.
“...... This kind of writing should be the script of the Warring States Period, the State of Qi. ”
Meng Yu looked at it, searched in his mind, and came to a positive conclusion.
"Brother, it's been more than a thousand years since the Warring States Period, so I said that I guess I'm older than you and me!"
Hearing Meng Yu's affirmative tone, Zilu couldn't help but glance at Meng Yu.
"But..."
Meng Yu didn't see Zilu's little eyes that were a little contemptuous, at this time, all his thoughts were taken away by the cold iron piece. Otherwise, if he is so despised, Meng Yu will definitely blow up his hair and go back.
Meng Yu frowned, and stopped talking.
"Brother, you want to say that the age of this piece of cold iron is not long ago, at most one or two hundred years away from now, right?"
Zilu raised a suspicion that he had just discovered.
"Hmm!"
Mengyu agreed.
"I think it's weird, it doesn't feel like a good match!"
Zilu shrugged her shoulders and said strangely.
Moreover, if you look closely, you will also find that the words on this piece of cold iron are not engraved with sharp weapons. On the contrary, it is like something used, and it is soaked up little by little. ”
Mengyu, who was discerning, discovered a more secret information on the cold iron piece.
"Brother, since you know the text on it, what is written on it?"
What Meng Yu proposed, but Zilu didn't see it.
However, Zilu was more concerned about the words engraved on it that he didn't recognize.
"On the front it is written, the Octagonal Tower. The side reads, 'Yin and Yang Circulation, Octagonal Circulation'. ”
Meng Yu looked at the cold iron piece and said.
"There are still words on the side?!"
Zilu's eyes widened, thinking that there was only text on the front of the cold iron piece!
What the hell is going on?
What is the origin of this piece of cold iron?
How could such a message be left?
It seems that there are a lot of secrets preserved on this piece of cold iron!
"Well, it's so small that you can't see it with your eyes, you can only feel it with your hands. However, what puzzles me is why the small seal of the Qin Dynasty is used on the side? If you look at only the two fonts, the difference between the front and back is more than 100 years!"
Meng Yu squinted at this piece of cold iron that contained countless secrets, and he was as careful as a hair, and he also discovered a hidden secret.
"But the time with the most wood will not exceed 500 years, and it should be the wood of the Northern Wei Dynasty. ”
Hearing her brother say that, Zilu also remembered the age of the wood of this "Yin Yang Coffin" and added.
"Heh~ The more I think about it, the more interesting I feel!"
Meng Yu's gaze walked around the "Yin Yang Coffin" and the cold iron piece, and the corners of his mouth raised a somewhat playful smile.
"Brother, you say, could this be related to the Yin and Yang family in the Warring States Period? You see, it is the "Yin and Yang Coffin" and the "Yin and Yang Follow, Octagonal Line"! Moreover, it also uses the script of the Qi State. At that time, the Qi Kingdom had a talent from the Yin and Yang family like Zou Yan!"
Zilu's eyes flashed with a deep light, and after thinking about it carefully, she speculated.
"I don't know. If you don't have evidence, you can't prove your speculation. ”
Hearing Zilu's speculation, a trace of complex and clear emotions flashed in Mengyu's eyes.
But his mouth is still like Zhen Di, and he is not full of words.
After all, there are some things that cannot be explained in this small island full of doubts. Moreover, a single piece of physical evidence alone does not tell the story. Only the interlocking evidence, after some reasoning and reflection, forms a complete chain of evidence, may be able to explain the problem. It's too early to say that.
The evidence discussion between Mengyu and Zilu was quite intense, but the people standing on the side felt cold sweat.
This time, I'm afraid it is...
At the same time, in Qinjiang's eyes, these two are still well-informed. It seems that there was nothing wrong with my original plan, but the path I took was a little...
"Okay, brother, why don't we tear this coffin down and see what's inside!"
Zilu also understood her brother's rigorous thinking, so she pointed to the "Yin Yang Coffin" and proposed.
"No need to dismantle it. ”
Meng Yu glanced at the "Yin Yang Coffin" with a deep gaze and rejected the proposal.
"Why?"
Zilu was puzzled.
"The mission of this coffin has been accomplished!"
Meng Yu firmly closed the coffin.
"Brother, don't talk nonsense!"
Zilu patted Mengyu's shoulder, looking incredulous.
"Where did you find this cold iron piece?"
But Meng Yu seemed very calm.
"It's in the depression of the track, I feel it, I don't see it. ”
Zilu didn't know why *Yu asked this, but she still answered him truthfully.
"Then listen to me and give you an analysis, why I said that the mission of this coffin has been completed. Suppose, someone has already found this coffin before us. They either fear the dead and dare not open them, or they rob the tomb and steal money. When we open it, it's empty, which proves that what people think we should take has been taken. All that was left now was an empty coffin that they thought was useless. And you found this piece of cold iron in the depression of the coffin track, and you touched it. This proves that the person who hid this piece of cold iron was essentially unwilling to let people find this piece of cold iron. Moreover, there must be some secret hidden on this piece of cold iron. And this secret, only this person who hides it, knows. That's why he's stored in such an inconspicuous place. After all, ordinary tomb robbers, after opening the coffin, looted the valuable items on the corpse, or the property already in the coffin. Other than that, they don't have to make extra moves. After all, they are for money. No one would have thought that in such a position, there would be something. This ensures that this piece of cold iron is not noticed. And you only know it by chance. If none of us here had found out, maybe it would have been over. So, I said, there is no need to dismantle this coffin, because he has no use for it anymore. ”
Meng Yu calmly, rationally and reasonably.
In fact, Meng Yu didn't intend to explain his thought process in detail. After all, Xiaolu is not stupid, and he can make him understand it with just a few words.
But thinking that they are all "their own people" here, they don't mean to hide it deliberately.
Moreover, since he wants to pull Zhen Di into his circle of alliances and sincerely let him do things for himself, a person like him who is still shrewd, he is bound to need to make him recognize his ability.
